When clicking on the next, prev or parent link of a HN comment, dillo scrolls to the bottom instead of the actual comment. Same when opening a link with the anchor:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38847613#38849048

This seems to be happening because the id is the <tr> element as if this were replaced by the upvote button (which is an <a> tag) then it works:

$ dilloc dump | sed 's/href="#\([0-9]\+\)"/href="#up_\1"/g' | dilloc load
